2011 Map of Fodice

About this map

Fodice and the surrounding piney woods of Houston County are defined by a complex network of creeks and rural routes in this early 21st-century study. The landscape is dominated by the sprawling drainage system of White Rock Creek, including its various branches like East Fork White Rock Creek and Little White Rock Creek. Small settlements like Shady Grove and Holly anchor the region, connected by a mix of state-maintained farm-to-market roads and local paths such as Old Grovetown Lovelady Rd. Cultural landmarks including the Fodice Cemetery and Foster Cemetery provide essential touchpoints for genealogical research in this quiet corner of East Texas. The Shady Grove Lookout Tower stands as a notable landmark overlooking the timbered terrain, while various water features like Bob Shrivers Tank reflect the local agricultural and land management practices of the era.
